Charges recommended against truckers in road rage incident

Police are recommending charges against truck drivers from Calgary and Burnaby following an Aug. 3 road rage incident.

The incident occurred east of Sicamous, and was reported to police at 9:58 a.m.

“It started out on that four lane, big trucks rolling along westbound,” explained Dubnyk. “Another truck and trailer pulls out and then tries to get by the big semi truck at the end of the four lane and can’t. So then, a few kilometres up the road when there’s a chance to pass, the truck and trailer pulls out, passes the big truck, and then gets in front of him and puts his brakes on.

“So the big truck ends up crashing into him – not smashing into him, but just kind of hit him, and sort of pushed him off the roadside and kept on going and stopped and phoned from the Husky.”
